Software Engineering - Software Engineer II

The company is developing ReqTool, an internal requirements management platform for XR hardware and software programs. The Software Engineer II role focuses on improving the UX of a requirements management platform by redesigning workflows, enhancing dense data views, translating user feedback into fixes, and partnering with engineers through build and QA.

Responsibilities:

• Work on the UX of a requirements management platform
• Redesign individual screens and user flows — document creation, requirement editing, dependency linking, coverage views
• Improve dense table and graph views: information hierarchy, filtering, bulk actions, empty and error states
• Take a short problem statement, scope it independently, and propose an approach before designing
• Turn engineer- and TPM-reported friction (including bugs and feedback) into concrete design fixes
• Produce dev-ready specs and partner with engineers through build and QA
• Sequence your own work against milestones and keep status visible to a distributed team

Requirements:

• 4 years UX/product design experience with a portfolio of shipped work
• Proven experience designing data-dense enterprise or internal tooling — tables, graphs, hierarchies, admin surfaces
• Strong Figma skills including components, variants, and design-system contribution
• Track record of self-directed work with multiple concurrent deliverables and light supervision
• Ability to interview technical users and translate domain complexity into clear interfaces
• Excellent written communication in an async environment
• Prior work experience at client or in client's Industry
• Applicants must be able to work directly for Artech on W2
• Experience with requirements management, PLM, ALM, or traceability tools (DOORS, Jama, Polarion, or similar)
• Familiarity with hardware development or systems engineering processes (V-model, verification, change control boards)
• Background in developer tools or technical enterprise software
• Prototyping ability for validating complex interactions
